Park Tae-Joon, a pioneer in the Korean steel industry, has greatly influenced the advancement of science and technology as well as the development of the nation's economy. He believed that POSCO, which was a government-owned company, should not only focus on making profits, but also operate for higher state-level purposes. This belief became the basis for founding a general laboratory and a research university, as well as building big science and technology R&D facilities. Park Tae-Joon's efforts to establish a research university and his dedication to the advancement of science education stemmed from his devotion to public welfare. Just like he believed that the steel industry, which is the basis for all other industries, should be promoted at the state-level, he believed that university and basic science should also be promoted at the state-level. Thanks to his philosophy, the Pohang University of Science and Technology has risen beyond just a polytechnic school to become a research university that makes revolutionary science and technology advancements for the nation. The fact that Park Tae-Joon used profits from business to build the university and national research facilities such as the Pohang Light Source also shows that he nurtured pure science with the welfare of the whole nation in mind.

Firms initiate philanthropic activities to improve social welfare that is beyond the scope of their responsibility towards society. Forestry activities, among other philanthropic areas, simultaneously improve corporate environment and social performance and provide the opportunity to cooperate for a large number of employees. Firms can effectively contribute to forest conservation with their financial and human resources. To encourage participation of more firms, we need to understand how and why firms engage in such activities. This study aims to explore different types of philanthropic forestry activities that these firms undertake. Corporate philanthropic activities can be categorized as donation, in-house project, or collaboration according to the governance type. We analyzed Yuhan-Kimberly's forestry campaign to investigate how and why the firm engaged in each type. We also propose some practical implications for firms, government, and non-profit organizations to invigorate firm's participation in philanthropic forestry activities.

This study reviews strategic CSR, which recently has become a controversial topic, and examines the implications of strategic CSR activities on corporate performance. For this, three hypotheses were set. First we categorize CSR activities into economic, legal·ethical, philanthropic, and social innovation responsibility, and to verify if these CSR activities have positive influences on the performance of Chinese and Korean companies. Second, we explore the moderating effects of globalization between the CSR activities and corporate performance. In addition, CSR activities were separated into traditional and strategic in order, and to determine whether the strategic activities had a more positive influence on corporate performance than traditional CSR activities. For this, a total of 646 surveys (401 from China and 245 from Korea) were collectd from MBA students in China and Korea, and the results were comparatively analyzed.

한국대학교육협의회(회장 권영건 안동대 총장, 이하 대교협)는 한국대학신문의 후원으로 2006년 12월 5일 대교협 회의실에서 '대학생 취업관련 기관 간 연계체제 구축'을 위한 특별좌담회를 개최하였다. 이번 좌담회에서는 취업기관 간의 연계체제 구축 실태를 진단하고, 향후 구축될 연계체제 내용, 방법을 논의하고, 연계 구축을 위한 대학과 정부, 기업 간의 상호 협력방안을 모색하였다. 대교협 김영식 사무총장은 취업관련 기관들에게 "오늘 좌담회를 계기로 대학생 취업난 해소에 대교협의 협조가 필요한 사안이 있으면 언제든지 요청하여 줄 것을 당부한다"고 말했다.

우리나라 대학에 부설된 기술연구소들은 이와 같은 응용연구보다는 기초연구에 주력하고 있 으며, 연구소 자체의 시설이나 전임연구원이 없는 실정에 있다. 대학에는 가장 우수하고 능 력이 뛰어난 많은 연구인력을 보유하고 있음에도 대학의 강의에 주력한 나머지 이 인력을 기술 개발에 활용하지 못하고 있는 것은 하루빨리 시정되어야 한다. 기업체가 해결하기 어려운 기 술과 연구인력이 부족한 경우 대학의 인력과 시설을 활용하는 체제의 개선은 이미 오래동안 논 의되었고 실천에 옮기려고 하고 있으나 아직 미흡하다. 이 서독의 시스템을 본받아 우리나라에 적합하도록 대학의 연구소가 활성화되어야 할 때가 도래하였다.

본 연구는 한국 나노기술의 발전현황을 살펴보고 나노기업들이 갖고 있는 재무적 특징을 분석한 것이다. 한국의 나노기술은 정부의 집중적인 지원을 받으면서 기업과 대학을 비롯한 연구기관들 사이의 경쟁적인 연구 속에서 단기간에 괄목할만한 성장을 하였다. 그 결과 미국, 일본, 독일에 뒤이은 높은 기술수준을 보유하게 되었다. 이러한 가운데 나노기술을 보유한 기업들에 대한 재무적 특징을 일반기업들과 비교 분석하여 몇 가지 의미 있는 결과를 확인할 수 있었다. 첫째 나노기업들은 일반기업들에 비해 높은 성장을 보이고 있다. 둘째 나노기업들은 일반기업들에 비해서 타인자본의존도가 높게 나타났다. 끝으로 나노기업들의 수익성은 일반기업에 비해서 낮게 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과는 나노기술의 지속적 발전을 위한 정책적 결정에 중요한 시사점을 제시한다. 우선 정부는 나노기술의 산업화를 지원하여 기술의 제품화를 촉진시키는 것과는 별도로 나노기업의 재무구조개선에 관심을 갖고 부채비율을 낮추도록 해야 한다. 그래야만 수익성을 기반으로 한 지속적 성장이 가능하기 때문이다. 이를 위해서 나노기업에 대한 투자세액공제 등의 정책을 녹색성장정책에 포함시킬 필요가 있다고 본다.

The purpose of this study is to find the effects of triple helix model on the firm innovation, especially focused on the moderating effects of trust in Daegu Gyeongbuk. There are two ways of triple helix interactions in Korea. One is a traditional triple helix interaction in which entrepreneurial universities have a central role. As the other way, such 3rd-sector type organizations as technoparks have a important role in facilitating the triple helix interactions. We collected data from 231 firms located in the Daegu-Gyeongbuk region. According to the findings, firstly, 3rd-sector type organizations such as technoparks have a positive(+) effect on the firm innovation. But a traditional triple helix interaction has not. Secondly, a 3rd-sector type support has much more positive(+) effects on the firm innovation than a traditional triple helix interaction. Thirdly, the trust has a positive(+) moderating effect on the firm innovation in the two-type of the triple helix interactions. In the conclusion, research implication, limitation of this study, and future directions are suggested.

This study investigates the moderating effects of corporate mentoring on the relationship between entrepreneurship and start-up satisfaction. The research was designed to examine a direct relationship between the entrepreneurship on the start-up satisfaction. In addition, indirect impacts of corporate mentoring on the relationship between entrepreneurship and start-up satisfaction. Data was collected by distributing questionnaires through e-mail or direct visit to the participating companies in the Start-up Leading University Project, college start-up clubs, companies in university business incubating centers, and general entrepreneurs in Busan and Gyeongnam areas. Empirical data was then analyzed using the SPSS 18.0 statistical program. The results reveal that such categories as innovation and autonomy in entrepreneurship have a direct positive effect on entrepreneurial satisfaction and the corporate mentoring has a moderating effect only when autonomy has a direct positive effect on start-up satisfaction. It is implied that an improvement of start-up satisfaction may be attained only when mentoring programs are well accepted by entrepreneurs and their workers while working in a free and autonomous environment with a flexible corporate culture. This study may provide the theoretical and practical implications for start-up support organizations such as start-up support groups of Start-Up Leading University Project.
